Materials Data on In2Cu2SiS6 by Materials Project
Abstract
Cu2In2SiS6 crystallizes in the monoclinic Cc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Cu1+ sites. In the first Cu1+ site, Cu1+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form distorted CuS4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent CuS4 tetrahedra, corners with two equivalent SiS4 tetrahedra, and corners with six InS4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Cu–S bond distances ranging from 2.34–2.56 Å. In the second Cu1+ site, Cu1+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form CuS4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent CuS4 tetrahedra, corners with two equivalent SiS4 tetrahedra, and corners with six InS4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Cu–S bond distances ranging from 2.36–2.42 Å. There are two inequivalent In3+ sites. In the first In3+ site, In3+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form InS4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent InS4 tetrahedra, corners with two equivalent SiS4 tetrahedra, and corners with six CuS4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of In–S bond distances ranging from 2.52–2.59 Å. In the second In3+ site, In3+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form InS4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent InS4 tetrahedra, corners with two equivalent SiS4 tetrahedra, andmore »
